Wolfishmusings, I like what you said. I am reading a book now by Rabbi Meir Lamberski “Through Your Hands” the complete story of Chanukah. And today, whilst swimming during the “religious ladies swim” in our community pool, I looked around and asked myself, what exactly WERE Torah Jews like, in those days? In other words, would we — swimming around here–even be considered frum to them? I don’t think so. IT may have looked like the misyavnim who were building the gyms and pools for the body.
